Maybe you're mixing up things (or I do ;)  defaultnumberingprovider.cxx
is for numbering of paragraphs and outline numbering, not for
implementations of numeral systems. Your case seems to be
transliteration into a different native number system, such code lives
in i18npool/source/nativenumber/nativenumbersupplier.cxx and
i18npool/source/nativenumber/data/* files, and may get used by
transliterations.

In fact the paragraph and outline numbering may use transliterations and
native number systems.

You can use icu::RuleBasedNumberFormat instances within the i18npool
code, but what would be "simply support"?
